Use semicolons to separate the names.</p>
<p class="Paragraph">You can also use placeholders for the names of hosts and domains. <text:s text:c="" xmlns:text="http://openoffice.org/2000/text"/>For example, enter "*.sun.de" (no quotation marks) to address all the hosts in the sun.de domain without proxy or "www.lifevideo.*" to address all the www.lifevideo.* hosts without proxy.</p>

<p class="Paragraph">This is where you set the name of the DNS (Domain Name System). The DNS name server is there to translate the full name of the host that you enter as URL, e.g. www.sun.com, into its 32-bit IP address. The 32-bit numbers of IP addresses are shown in a simplified way as four decimal numbers separated by dots. Each decimal number is a number from 0 to 255, and represents the first, second, third and final 8 bits of the entire 32 bits.</p>
